I have been struggling to figure out what to post about since I am currently box-less. I think tomorrow the mailman is going to leave about 20 packages by my door but for now, I’ve just been figuratively wringing my hands thinking about what I can write about! That is, until Matt complimented me on […] Read more…

Sephora Wish List
OK, so I made a pretty big Sephora haul at the VIB Rouge event earlier this month. So while I would like to have an unlimited pile of money where I can just buy all the makeup I want all the time, I occasionally need to show some restraint. So on those days when I am showing […] Read more…
Friday Favorites – ColourPop Sheer Lippie Stix
Despite the name being cringe-worthy, ColourPop new sheer Lippie Stix are my new favorite makeup toy. First of all, they are $5. FIVE DOLLARS. You can’t even buy a latte for $5 anymore, yet you can get beautiful, quality lip color for that price. Lippie Stix (I feel like I’m 13 calling them that) come […] Read more…
Home Office Inspiration
As most of you know, my husband and I just bought our first house in April. While we have bought a few pieces and it looks decent from a day-to-day perspective, I really want to give our guest room a makeover so it can eventually double as my Home Office/Blogging HQ. When I saw this […] Read more…
Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs: Product Review
I was thrilled when Influenster sent me Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs to review. I had previously tried this product but had somehow forgotten how awesome it was so I was so glad I had the chance to try it again. For those of you who don’t know about Influenster, it is a site you can […] Read more…

Native War Paint Monthly Box: June
Hello! Guest post here from Pattie Anderson, another of Lauren’s online nail polish friends. So as a nail polish friend, it should come as no surprise that my guest posts are reviews of, you guessed it, nail polish boxes. First up is my review of the monthly box from Native War Paints. I own several […] Read more…
Colourpop Review #2
Remember that time when I discovered Colourpop Cosmetics and I reviewed four shadows? Yeah. That was cute. Now I have 17 shadows. The addiction is real. But here’s the thing, I haven’t touched my Urban Decay Naked palettes since I started my Colourpop collection and I may or may not have more on the way. […] Read more…
PRiMO – Product Review
When a rep from PRiMO reached out to me to chat about subscription boxes (they have an interest in getting into some of the ones I have reviewed), I felt they would make a good fit for a few food-centric boxes that I have received. This small, Denver-based company specializes in small-batch, artisinal spicy/sweet preserves and olive […] Read more…
Product Review: Adovia Dead Sea Scrub
I have wanted to write about this Dead Sea Salt Scrub from Adovia Mineral Skin Care for awhile but I kept accidentally cutting myself. And cats scratched me. And blisters from the garden…. What a mess. And you know what they say about salt and wounds and all that. I partnered with Brandbacker to review […] Read more…
